When Minnesota Vikings coach Brad Childress told his players Monday afternoon that Randy Moss(notes) would be released because “we want good people that are good football players, and this just doesn’t fit,” several of them nodded their approval. Though Childress isn’t especially popular in the locker room, some Vikings were on board with his decision to move on without Moss four weeks after the polarizing wideout was reacquired in a trade with the New England Patriots.

Even before Sunday’s surreal address to the media following the Vikings’ 28-18 defeat to the Patriots at Gillette Stadium – during which he questioned Childress’ leadership while effusively praising his former coach, Bill Belichick, and the Patriots’ organization – Moss had alienated some of his teammates with his brash, entitled behavior, most glaringly in an incident that occurred in the team’s locker room last Friday afternoon, Yahoo! Sports has learned.

As is the team’s custom on Fridays, a local food establishment was invited to the training facility to serve a catered, post-practice meal in the locker room. In this case, a St. Paul restaurant that is a favorite of former Vikings center Matt Birk. As the proprietors helped serve chicken, ribs, pasta and other dishes to Vikings players, Moss paced up and down the serving line and loudly expressed his displeasure with the offerings.

According to one player who witnessed the scene, Moss yelled, “What the [expletive]? Who ordered this crap? I wouldn’t feed this to my dog!”

Said the witness: “It was brutal. The truth is, he deserved to be cut after that. It was such an uncomfortable moment. You know that feeling where you just can tell someone feels so small? That’s what it was like being there.

“This wasn’t a chain – it was a mom-and-pop restaurant, and you could tell it was their best stuff. They had a special carving station set up, and there were players and other support staff lining up to eat it. And [Moss] is at his locker saying, ‘You know, I used to have to eat that crap – but now I’ve got money.’ You just felt so sad for them. I had never seen anyone treated like that.

“And by the way, the food was actually really good.”

While Moss had his share of supporters in the locker room, some Vikings had grown disillusioned with his attitude. From the receiver’s uneven effort in practice to his displays of self-centeredness off the field, some veterans believed Moss was becoming a bad influence to young players like second-year wideout Percy Harvin(notes).

There was also locker room speculation about Moss’ effort – or lack thereof – on two plays in recent games. With the Vikes facing a last-gasp fourth-down pass in a 28-24 defeat to the Packers in Green Bay two Sundays ago, quarterback Brett Favre(notes) threw a high pass in the back of the end zone that sailed over Moss’ head, though it didn’t appear as though the receiver made an effort to jump for the ball.

In Sunday’s game against the Patriots, with the Vikings trailing by 10 midway through the fourth quarter, Moss drew a pass-interference penalty on Patriots safety Brandon Meriweather(notes) while streaking down the left sideline. It appeared as though Moss might have been able to catch the pass for a touchdown after the penalty occurred but that he broke off the route once the flag was thrown.

The Vikings got the ball at the New England 9 and scored four plays later, though not before Favre sustained a lacerated chin that knocked him from the game.

Most of all, however, Moss’ treatment of the restauranteurs in the locker room convinced some teammates that he wasn’t worth the trouble. Since becoming the Vikings’ coach in 2006, Childress has consistently preached that he wants “good people who are good football players,” and Moss clearly didn’t seem to be projecting himself as someone who fits in the former category.

When Childress, according to one person in Monday’s meeting, said of Moss, “This just doesn’t fit with how we treat people, how we talk to people and how we act,” it was clear that he was referring to the incident that occurred last Friday. Sunday’s stream-of-consciousness statement to the media only reinforced the internal perception that Moss was going out of his way to disrespect the organization.

With all of that said, Childress still has major credibility issues with his players, most of whom side with Favre in his ongoing clash with the coach. And there’s no guarantee Childress will stay the coach for the remainder of the season. However, his decision to part ways with Moss was, for some, viewed as an understandable consequence of the receiver’s behavior.

Actually at this point he's in the process of throwing every person he can under the bus to try to save his own ass, including Favre.

Moss would certainly help the passing game, just by being on the field. He'd probably hurt the running game though. I doubt he's much of a blocker as a WR, and if he's not going to block... some of those 30, 40, 50 yard runs turn into 8 or 10.

Not to mention signing him seems to undermine everything this coaching staff has tried to teach this young team. They seem to have "bought in". I tend to think he's not worth the risk.

I think that's where people get way off base about the "right 53" stuff. It's not just about character. We've got a DE that likes to grab people's genitals for a living. It has a lot more to do with guys playing hard than being nice.

This group of guys was part of an organization that used cameras to cheat and steal signals. I don't think it has nearly as much to do with character compared to making sure plays like the ones Moss made the other day don't happen.

I care when attitudes in the locker room create divisions. Where there's smoke there's fire. We're hearing multiple sources on both the Pats and the Vikings that he has started to become an entitled asshole and that his teammates resent him for it.

I don't care if our opponents resent one of our players. It's a completely different thing if our own teammates do. Especially a team like the Chiefs that are winning games because they are gelling big time as a team.

Apparently Favre was pissed off about what Randy did. That sealed his fate.

Since we've already devoted plenty of space today to the latest chapter in the soap opera that has become the life and times of Randy Moss (http://www.rotoworld.com/content/playerpages/player_main.aspx?sport=NFL&id=1655), here's another one.

As we explained earlier today, Michael Silver of Yahoo! Sports reported that Moss acted like the part of the horse onto which a saddle isn't placed when a catered meal was made available to the players after Friday's practice. The owner of the restaurant that provided the food, Gus Tinucci, has corroborated the account, both to the St. Paul Pioneer Press and on ESPN.

"That player was pretty well right on with what he said," Tinucci told Robert Flores.

Tinucci also has shared a tidbit that sheds the first light on the possible reaction of quarterback Brett Favre (http://www.rotoworld.com/content/playerpages/player_main.aspx?sport=NFL&id=1744) to the release of Moss.

"If Favre would have had a ball, he would have beaned him right in the head (http://sports.espn.go.com/nfl/news/story?id=5755561). Favre looked at him like, 'Are you kidding me?'" Tinucci told the Pioneer Press.

It is a risk. More than likely a risk that we won't have to worry about, since he's not going to drop to us anyway. But if we do get him, we're insane not to take the chance. He is exactly what we need to open up the passing game and make our offense truly scary.

And I don't know how many times it needs to be said - Moss on a winning team doesn't cause problems. If we're winning, he'll be fine. If not, just shitcan him like Minnesota did.

Want to open up the passing game?

Get a QB next year.

Moss was a problem on the Pats in '08, quitting on plays because Cassel couldn't get the ball to him consistently, and this year when he felt slighted by the Pats not discussing a new contract.

He quit in a game against the Steelers in which the Pats were battling, and had a chance to seize momentum.

Had he made one play in two seperate opportunities, balls that hit him the hands, the Pats likley get the momentum, and have a good chance of winning, possibly helping getting a win, a win that would have gotten them to 12 wins and a playoff appearence.

That was just one game.

There were twoother games that he gave no effort in which effort could have made the difference between winning and losing.

Three games in which effort, or lack there of, can be pointed to and assigned blame for a loss.

Moss was a problem on the Pats in '08, quitting on plays because Cassel couldn't get the ball to him consistently, and this year when he felt slighted by the Pats not discussing a new contract.

He quit in a game against the Steelers in which the Pats were battling, and had a chance to seize momentum.

Had he made one play in two seperate opportunities, balls that hit him the hands, the Pats likley get the momentum, and have a good chance of winning, possibly helping getting a win, a win that would have gotten them to 12 wins and a playoff appearence.

That was just one game.

There were twoother games that he gave no effort in which effort could have made the difference between winning and losing.

Three games in which effort, or lack there of, can be pointed to and assigned blame for a loss.

And despite all that, our best current WR isn't fit to hold his jock.

It is a risk. More than likely a risk that we won't have to worry about, since he's not going to drop to us anyway. But if we do get him, we're insane not to take the chance. He is exactly what we need to open up the passing game and make our offense truly scary.

And I don't know how many times it needs to be said - Moss on a winning team doesn't cause problems. If we're winning, he'll be fine. If not, just shitcan him like Minnesota did. If by some miracle we can land him, it's not like we're giving up draft picks to the waiver wire. Clark's wallet being a bit lighter concerns me not at all.

The Pats were a winning team and he caused all kinds of problems. :shrug:

Fine. Let's hope he goes to the Chargers. Then when Moss scores four touchdowns as they put up 70 points on us, all you "character guys" can talk about how glad you are that we didn't sign him, because he's a big meanie and once flicked a booger at an orphan.

Article on Pioli...

"He says going on the road and scouting is really the meat of his job because when he drafts a player, he wants to make sure he knows what he's getting. He says he stills travels to various schools quite a bit and referenced Bill Polian, Colts executive, as one of the all-time greats that still goes out on the road

"When I go to a school," he says, "I always take time to talk to the equipment manager, a female that works in the football office, whether it's a student assistant, academic counselor or a secretary, and talk to a janitor.

He says you can tell a lot about someone by the way they treat others, particularly women. He says he thinks of of the move The Breakfast Club when talking to a custodian.

"One of my favorites movies is the Breakfast Club. Judd Nelson gets into it with the custodian and the custodian just looks him in the eyes and says, 'Let me tell you something. I'm the eyes and ears of the school.' He talks about, 'Hey I know what's in your locker.'

"People like that, they know things and I think it's really important to understand how those people are treated."

Sure he did that is why they released him. Fights with coaches, lazy play and a fight with Tom Brady (allegedly).

With that being said if Pioli\Haley think they can handle him I will trust their judgment. That goes both ways.

I'm not saying that's guaranteed to happen. But it's pretty obvious at this point we've build a pretty cohesive team. It would look really bad if after all the messages they've sent about team and getting rid of guys like LJ and Pollard who didn't fit in, they bring in a guy who becomes a loudmouth, doesn't fit in and starts acting up.

True, but that's assuming that Haley and co. would allow that to happen in the first place. Bringing him in, initially, could signal that they're doing everything possible to compete and make a push this year, which I think is important. Take full advantage of the weak schedule.

If Moss gets out of line, cut him immediately. This then becomes an even stronger message about the culture that the Chiefs are trying to build because Haley could legitimately say, "I just cut a HOFer because he wouldn't fall in line. You think you're above the team?" Works well b/c there isn't a single player on the team who can sniff Moss's natural talents.

I see far more positive than potential negative because it would take willful stupidity for the latter to materialize.

On the other hand, how much would Haley's image be enhanced in his players' eyes if he benched/deactivated Moss for failing to live up to expectations like he did with DJ and Bowe last year?

How long did it take these guys to finally get it and get rid of LJ?

While the Chiefs still wouldn't have been a good team last year, they wouldn't have been nearly as pathetic, IMO, from the start of the year as they were had they released LJ long before the season started.

It took them 7 games(?).

And we all know team chemistry is 100,000 times more important than adding a talented receiver w/ a sh*tty attitude. We can't **** that up.

In the case of the dinner...

1. The organization showed class by providing a meal
2. The caterer showed class by putting forth their best effort
3. Moss showed none
4. The organization showed class again by cutting him.

If he can't show class and gratitude at a time when everyone else is showing it to him then it is the right time to release him so that he can spend time with others who have the same outlook as he.

The Patriots traded him because they didn't want to resign a 33 year old wide receiver and knew somebody would get fisted by giving them a first day draft pick. And that is what they did. That is why they are the Patriots. You don't make a trade with the Patriots and come out on the better side of it. Just look at us and Matt f*cking Cassel

"After the draft, we talked about the personnel and looked at our roster and so forth, and we made that decision to move on with the players that we have," Belichick told Boston sports radio station WEEI on Monday afternoon. "He was a good football player, he came in and had a heck of a year for us in '07. Again, at this point in time, we felt like this was the direction we had to go on."

With all due indifference; Childress is the lamest "coach" I've ever seen, and Minnesota overall makes me think not of football, but of all the royal bands that have come from there.

Oh please.

The Pats got a 2nd rounder for a piece of shit QB. They got a 1st rounder for a Defensive Tackle. They got a 3rd rounder for a very good receiver. Pretty clear that the move was made because they wanted to get rid of him, not because they got some kind of a steal for him.

By the way, for anyone who was wondering, this is the quote about Adalius Thomas.

I think it's hilarious that people are so convinced that because Bellichick and Brady speak warm and fuzzy about Randy Moss that that for some reason means that they love the guy. It's called coachspeak.

They serve Lobster sammiches at Gillette stadium. thats high brow shit. can you get bar-b-q'd Lobster at arrowhead?

The Vikings gave up a 3rd round pick to get Moss if memory serves. If they were willing to let the receiver go they acquired for that high of a pick so soon after he arrived because he wasn't worth it to them, that says enough to me that I don't want him in a KC uniform. That and St. Paul restaurant is the bomb! Anyone who says otherwise is a useless, yerk-toting, frisbee-chucking cheeba-monkey.

The way I see it: (1) Cassel was able to get the guy the ball @ 70 times for 11 TDs, (2) KC has no #2 reciever, (3) KC has no deep threat WR, (4) this year may be KC's best year to make a run in the near future*, (5) I'm only looking for a 1 and done deal.

* I think KC can over exceed expectations this year based on their schedule. I think there is a good likelihood they take a step back in 2011 because of a harder schedule and a new young QB.

The Vikings had Moss for 4 games.

They went 1-3 in that span.

Please shut up about how great an addition Moss would be dumbasses.

Thank you.

In their one victory, he was the Vikings leading receiver.

The Vikings had big problems before Moss joined them.

Please shut up about how Moss couldn't have a positive impact for the Chiefs.

Thank you.

1-2 without him, only beating the Lions. It's not like he took a good team and destroyed it.

Agree completely with this statement. This league is schedule-driven, and we could be a "better" team next year and have a worse record.

Thus, you have to make the absolute most out of all possibilities. Don't assume a ceiling for this team, yet, however unlikely anything might be.

I can't believe there are people on here asking what's wrong with that kind of behavior. Honestly if you don't see what's wrong with that you're just a bad person.
